Tirana is experiencing a high number of visitors this summer. Even though the city has not a sea, tourists are flooding this summer to the different museums and galleries, to learn more about the history and culture of our country. Cultural Tourism is very attractive for foreign tourists especially for them visiting Albania for the first time.

After visiting the newly restored Scanderbeg Square, tourists are heading towards museums of the city.
